2025 Real Estate Monetizations

In order to support our liquidity, we have monetized certain of our real estate holdings. During 2024 and the first quarter of 2025 we sold two held for sale properties. In the first quarter of 2024, we monetized our office building in Culver City for $10.0 million. In the first quarter of 2025, we monetized our properties in Wellington, New Zealand for $21.5 million. In the second quarter of 2023, we classified our 2483 Trenton Avenue, Williamsport, Pennsylvania, property as held for sale. In May 2024, we classified our Cannon Park, Townsville, Queensland, Australia property as held for sale.

A ‘disposal group’ represents assets to be disposed of in a single transaction. A disposal group may represent a single asset, or, multiple assets. Discussed below are those real estate transactions affecting the presentation in our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and the profitability determination in our consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024.

Courtenay Central, Wellington, New Zealand

In June 2024, we classified our property assets in Wellington, New Zealand including Courtenay Central, as held for sale at the lower of cost and fair value less costs to sell. The disposal group consisted of our Courtenay Central cinema and retail property, along with our Tory and Wakefield Street car parks. Our book value (as opposed to fair value) of the property was $14.7 million. No adjustments to the book value of the assets were required upon classification as held for sale. The sale was completed on January 31, 2025, when control of the property ceded to the buyer, at a gross sale price of $21.5 million. The proceeds were used to pay off the Westpac mortgage on the property.
